This CPM project examines the use of aircraft as a supplemental detection method to calling in unreported wildfires. In this study, the author looks at the outputs of this program to determine in spite of the high cost of aircraft did they provide the necessary return and meet the program expectations for it to be a viable program for the SCFC. It's the author's goal to conduct a complete analysis of the 2007 fiscal year of the aviation program for the Coastal Region. I'll do this by looking at the inputs and outputs of data provided from the Computer Aided Dispatch System (CADS) through reviewing the processes that involve state and contract leased aircraft.
